This is a reminder about a special event this Sunday that is sure to be of interest to all guqin enthusiasts and anyone interested in Chinese arts.

 

The North American Guqin Association presents

Spring Festival Concert

 

The Year of the Rat is here! Join us for our Spring Festival Concert. There will be a varied program: Chinese guqin music by internationally known guqin player, Chinese opera, Chinese dance,kungfu by monks from Shaolin temples, Chinese poetry recitation, Chinese singing, and demonstrations of calligraphy and other Chinese arts. These art forms are representative of Chinese culture but many of them are rarely seen, even in China . Our program will also include games and fun activities to test non-Chinese speakers' knowledge of Chinese culture. If you are interested in how Chinese people celebrate their holidays, do join us.
